About The Author

Al Daniel attended Shattuck-St. Mary’s for three years, graduating in 2007, and spent the majority of his extracurricular time covering the school’s elite athletic programs. His highlights included covering the groundbreaking for the campus’ second ice arena and soccer facilities, each of the first three Boys’ Prep holiday invitationals and five national championship games.
During his time as an SSM student-journalist, Daniel’s work appeared in The Spectator, the Faribault Daily News and Let’s Play Hockey.
Daniel went on to Providence College, where he covered various Friar teams, but primarily women’s hockey, for The Cowl, and also spent two seasons as the Women’s Hockey East Association for Beyond The Dashers.
In addition to running the Shattuck Overtime blog, which is dedicated to following his fellow SSM alums in their athletic endeavors, Daniel currently writes a regular column for Bleacher Report.
